CONT

Gains, losses and provisions for losses resulting from normal business activities which are both abnormal in size and caused by rare or unusual circumstances, have sometimes been considered to be extraordinary items. However, because such items result from occurrences the underlying nature of which is typical of the customary business activities of the enterprise, even though caused by unusual circumstances, they are not extraordinary items.

OBS

Compare with "extraordinary item."
